Actually, in the original post above, checked only if monday is green. I reran my logic with gap-up of 0.25% and still it is negative and discouraged to hold CE
- 2Y:
GapUp>=0.25 29.35%, Flat/SmallUp 27.17%, GapDown 43.48%
3Y:
GapUp>=0.25 32.84%, Flat/SmallUp 27.61%, GapDown 39.55%
5Y:
GapUp>=0.25 34.65%, Flat/SmallUp 25.44%, GapDown 39.91%
10Y:
GapUp>=0.25 40.40%, Flat/SmallUp 26.71%, GapDown 32.89%
CE carry results:
09:30 exit
2Y: -9.13%, 3Y: -9.70%, 5Y: -9.02%
11:00 exit
2Y: -13.99%, 3Y: -13.45%, 5Y: -12.80%
The important refinement is this: the worst bucket is now clearly the stricter GapUp>=0.25 set.
2Y: -14.73% by 09:30, -21.60% by 11:00
3Y: -14.87% by 09:30, -18.82% by 11:00
5Y: -13.69% by 09:30, -17.28% by 11:00
